In this paper an iterative process of computing harmonic voltage profile on a power system transmission network is presented. A method based upon the frequency domain analysis is utilized in conjunction with the fundamental load flow computations. The concept of conventional reactive power and the distortion power are incorporated in order to determine interaction between the power system and harmonic generating sources. The model of the transmission system considered lends itself to the determination of the standing wave pattern and can be used in identifying the points of maxima and minima on the transmission line besides the two end points. A phase shifting model of transformer is presented for the harmonic analysis. Three examples of power transmission systems are taken to illustrate use of the algorithm. Included in the example test cases are a five bus example system reported by Heydt. IEEE-RBTS reported by Billington et al. and a reduced six bus power transmission system of SaskPower.
